If you can't handle the shedding of blood, like myself, thenyou better harden up and understand that it will happen and thewar we fight in the End-Time shall be literal and even bloody. Forwhen the Anti-Christ declares war on us, the Bride of Christ, the144,000, these verses mean what they say and it won't be just awar of words. We shall fight and die. For even as the first Childrenof Israel were chased by the Pharoah, so shall the A.C. chase us tothe Crossing of the Jordan. and continue to persecute as as we fleedown the King's Highway towards our resting place in Petra.

And along the way there shall be battles, the biggest of which will surely be at Bozrah in Idumea. For the Lord's words shall be fulfilled concerning Bozrah. For when read in context, it becomes clear that, the fulfillment of the Sword of the Lord (Excalibur) shall happen during the Tribulation. So let's go over these scriptures ...... starting with Isaiah 34

Isaiah 34: 1 And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree. (Rolled together like a scroll and trees loosing their leaves is a reference to the End-time rather than Isaiah's time)

Isa 34:5 For my SWORD shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, and upon the people of my curse, to judgment. (The Lord's Sword is bathed in heaven, maybe either cleaned or used as the Lord casts out the devil and one third of the angels from heaven at the start of the Tribulation...... and the war continues here on earth. Revelation 12))

Isa 34:6 The Sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in BOZRAH and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea. (The wording sacrifice is used similarly at the battle of Armegeddon where the Lord calls the birds of the air to clean up his sacrifice of the heathen that have died while trying to fight Him. So it appears we either sacrifice our lives for Him by choice or to Him without our choice. Romans 12: 1-2)

And then if you go on to the next chapter it becomes even more clear that these chapters in Isaiah are talking about our Last days.

Isa 35:1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. (Yes we shall flee to the wilderness and it shall become a garden of Eden for us and rejoice with us because of the Lord's presense. Joel 2)

Isa 35:2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God. (Yes as it appears we gather first in and near Mount Carmel where Elijah confronted the false prophets of Baal.....and Sharon refers to the plains just below Mount Carmel, both very close to the Mediterranean Sea.)

Isa 35:3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. (The word strengthen is used consistently in regards to King David strengthening the weak and defending the widows and outcasts, and fortifying their faith. Ezekiel 23)

Isa 35:4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, (Yes as vengenace is not ours but the Lord's, Romans 12: 19) even God with a recompence; He will come and save you. (And this is why the Lord is called our Deliverer)

Isa 35:5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. (For then we shall see and hear in the spirit miraculously and even do miracles and exploits because it is the End of All Times. SEE When do we do exploits )

Isa 35:6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. (SEE Water in the Wilderness )

Isa 35:7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. ( Joel 2:22 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it,even to the years of many generations. A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

Isa 35:8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. (SEE The King's Highway)
